Default I need help with my blaster? Its about wheelies!PLEAZ HELP

Hey u guys i have had my blaster like for 3 weeks and its great i love it now im starting to learn how to wheelie on it. Today i was doing wheelies on my blaster and then suddenly i hit this bump right before i popped the clutch and my blaster just shot up in the air it launged me back i had no time to press the rear break. luckily i had a helmet, i landed right on my ***. i think i hurt my tail bone oww! but im ok im all good ready to wheelie again tomorrow. any ways when it launged me it smacked the grab bar or wheelie bar what ever u call it. it smacked it hard and thats what prevented the quad from falling on top of me. After it smacked it the front wheels went back down and the quad went running straight for about 30 feet till it ran out of revs and it died so then i got right back up and got on it again. The only problem is that my grab bar is bent up wards about 2 inches. it doesnt look to bad but i was wondering if i do another wheelie and go to far back will the grab bar not work no more and will the quad fall on me? well any ways im thinking of replacing it since its so weak so i would like it if u can tell me some cheap grab bars i can get and where and what websites would be good to check out. What are the price ranges on them. Thanxs! PLEAS HELP

before you try anymore wheelies i think you should bend it back unless you think neck braces are in style.

also www.PRM-ATV.com has really nice grab bars for the blaster or any other sport atvs and are extremly strong and pretty cheap too.

Best advice I can give....Don't rely on the grab bar no matter what...Even if it's new there is no guarentee that it will stop you from going over.

Anyway, technically your bent grab bar should still stop you from going over because if it wouldn't, your quad would have ended up on top of you on your last wheelie that made it bend...but since it's bent a little already, then next time you hit it there is a good chance it will bend even more and then you'll go over.

You should be okay if you bend it back using an iron bar or something...sure it will bend back more easy than a new one, but it will last for a little while.
